Letter: Help seniors keep companions

File photo 2012.

On Thursday, a letter to the editor asked if the local area could begin a Meals On Wheels pet food program. We're happy to report that such a program exists in Monroe County and is a collaboration between Visiting Nurse Service's Meals On Wheels, Petco and CDS Monarch. In 2012, the partners delivered over 10,000 pounds of pet food to Rochester pet owners, and with more donations, we may be able to expand beyond the city limits. To contribute, you can donate pet food at any local Petco or mail monetary donations to Visiting Nurse Foundation, 2180 Empire Boulevard, Webster, NY 14580, and indicate that it is for the Pet Food Program.

Thank you for caring for seniors and the companions they love!
